Indigenous ancestors understood the vital connection between amphibians like frogs and ecological health. Frog's skin is permeable making them very vulnerable to any environmental changes so the health of them reflects the health of ecosystems. In Zuni Pueblo, daakya (frog) often appears on prayer bowls and dances are given asking for water in the form of rain or snow. Carved frogs are considered rain-bringing associated with abundance, fertility and cleansing. Shannon Waatsa's fabulous smiling serpentine Frog has lovely pen shell eyes. About 2 1/2" long, 1 3/4" wide and 3/4" tall, polished to brilliance.
